"We are definitely going for a conference title," TJ Stinde, IWU Running Back. "Like our coach said, we are the biggest class in history. Now make something out of it. Don't just be known for being the big class, be known for more then that and that is our goal."

"We have alot of guys coming in with experience and our conference you need guys like that," said Senior Quarterback Rob Gallik. "32 seniors is a huge number, espicially with 10 on the offense and nine on the defense. Everyone knows what they are doing. You get to take out that learning time."

Wesleyan kicks off the season September 7th at Aurora.
